Feng shui, or "wind and water", is a Chinese mystical practice which helps distinguish a place with positive energy from another attracting negative vibes. According to Chinese beliefs, bad feng shui could indeed attract diseases, a waste of money or heart breaks.
Spécial decodes the colors for you to make your home a real “home sweet home”.

Blue

Blue is a so-called cold color, the color of calm and serenity.
Its sedative effect makes it a suitable choice for the bedroom and the bathroom since it is associated with hygiene and health and evokes the seaside...

Red

Red is the quickest color read by our brain, it stimulates our organs and is associated with strength, energy and fascination. This hot color gives your living room and dining room a perfect harmony that stimulates appetite. But be careful not to abuse at the risk of diverting its beneficial effect!

Yellow

Positive color par excellence, yellow is associated with power, self-esteem and communication. Pale yellow will be more cheerful and welcoming, an ideal color for family rooms but also proper for your children’s homework table because it has the ability to increase the concentration and memory.

Green

Fresh color, associated with fertility, green is also an excellent anti-stress. Green soothes everyday stress, it’s an ideal color for the bathroom, veranda and frequently used for kitchens.

Purple

The fire of red and the calm of blue make this dual color a spiritual and meditation generator. Violet blends perfectly with wood for an adult’s bedroom.

Pink

It is the color of love and affection, pink invites itself harmoniously into the bedrooms especially the ones of little girls.

Black

Elegance, power, refinement and chic, black is the unbeatable color of luxury. Use it with moderation since black absorbs light and gives the impression that the room is smaller. As a complementary color, black stabilizes and enhances other colors and objects of your decoration.

White

White is the synthesis of all colors. It symbolizes neutrality, innocence and purity but only serves as an accompaniment to highlight other colors.

Grey

Rich in shades, grey adds an elegant touch to your house.

Brown

Use moderately to avoid an old house effect. Brown harmonizes with everything; it has many positive connotations and stabilizes the colors giving a warmer side to your accommodation.
